Disgusted Naval Officers.

WHAT THEY SAY OF THE PROSPECT OF MAKING BIG
GUNS AT THE WASHINGTON MAYNARD
81 see 1t stated that it is expected to have the
Washington navy-yard In full operation soon as q
gun foundry" said a naval officer to STAR re-
porter to-day. 81 am satisfied that the expecta-
tions will not be realized" he continued. "By the
time they are ready to build guns at the yard the
pieces that they have prepared to build will be
obsolete. 1t will be at least three years, with the
most favorable conditions, before the foundry can
be started. The delivery OF steel will not be COM
menced for two years What Is being done now
should have been done long ago. They are pre-
pairing TO build a travelling crane to lift hundred
to t, get the foundation for It, | am sure.
The ground in which 1t is to be
located is all made ground and no amount Of
pile driving will give the foundation for such
weights as it is proposed to handle. One OF the
workmen down at the yard well remembers when
boats used to sail up to the spot where the anchor
shop Is located and anchor them. Why. there is a
we'll right near the site In which the tide rises
and falls every day.. The ground is all made with
shavings, ashes, and the accumulatiOns OF years"
Another naval officer, in speaking of the Wash
1ngton navy-yard said: ''It is too disheartening
to talk about. The Navy is going to the dogs.
should like to go to sea to get rid OF all the bother
and disappointment That is the only relief for a
naval officer now wadayS.'

A Railroads ate War iu Texas.

CHICAGO, July 13.-A Times special from
Houston, Texas, says: The Texas railroads are
lust now engaged In an animated war or rates. It
was inaugurated yesterday. There seems TO have
been common understanding entered into al the
late meeting at New Orleans that the members OF
the association would engage In a free fight on
freight rates.
The Houston and Texas Central Railway, in
anticipation OF the cut in freight rates from
ST. Louis and Kansas City and other points outside
to common points In Texas, has issued rates
which, taking OBJECT tomorrow, viii be 20 per cent
less than the last cut, thus giving protection 10
Galveston and Houston merchants against foreign
Shippers.

THE IRISH LAND BILL
A Political Situation chat May Produce
a Modified HOme.Is ule Measure.

Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR.
LONDON, July 13.-The position OF the liberal
uniOnistS in regard to the land bill is rapidly be-
coming almost impossible. The bill has been
condemned in nearly every provision by radical
unioniStS like Chamberlain and by representa-
t1ves Of Ulster tenant farmers like Russell Both
these gentlemen, however, will vote for the second
reading to amend the bill. In committee both
declared their intention to support any proposal
for bringing judicial rents under revision. Un-
fortunately for them, however, harrington is not
with them. He takes conservative views OF the
Irish land question and objects to the revision of
rents He Is more favorable to the bill than most
OF his followers; Under these circumstances
stand TO their guns and give the Irish people prac
tically worthless as well as dishonest measure.
The question is whether, under these conditions,
the untonistS will sacrifice every pledge with
which they went to their constituents. They
have broken their promises On the coercion bill.
It remains to be seen whether they Will break
their promises on the land bill An the strong
as mere mOckery. II they carry their opinions
into action they will smash the government and
bring In Gladstone and home rule
TreveIyn now definitely Joins the Gladstonian
party, and becomes candidate for Glasgow,
with Gladstone's approval Irishmen DC
not quite like this choice, but there can be
the adoption OF O modified hOme-rule bill,
providing for the retention OF Irish members, and
some concessions on the question OF the adulnts-
lines Gladstone would carry the country with him.
